I really liked this restaurant when I went first time. I fell in love with the ambience and their great kabobs. The price is not too high for their ambience. Food can ordered indoors as well as outdoors. If you need a relief from the regular restaurants and want to try out a restaurant with some refreshing taste and exotic greek ambience, then I would recommend this to you.

We have been dining at Zorba's since they opened and still find it to be one of the best Greek dining experiences in the DFW area. The food, service & prices are excellent for Plano dining and with the BYOB policy you can save more than enough for both the flaming cheese and great deserts. For a fun & casual place to dine with out of town family members & friends we always choose Zorba's. Thxs. to Paul, Sally and the great staff for always taking such great care of your customers.

Went to Zenna for the first time tonight. The menu has so many choices. I ordered 3 different appetizers in place of an entree. The chicken basil wraps were the best I had ever had. and the SAUCE!!!! Wow. It was their version of a sweet and sour sauce, but had a kick and a hint of basil. Seriously tasty. The steamed chicken dumplings were great, and again the SAUCE was amazing. Last but not least the corn cakes were sween corn and some type of green veggie, maybe spinich, deep fried in a sweet batter. No sauce needed, and they were amazing! Should have been a dessert!! Their happy hour is good enough to attract us there this coming Easter Sunday! 50 cent drafts 3pm-7pm! And THE BEST PART!!! They are open till 3am every night!!
Pros: Best food in Plano, great decor and lighting, very reasonable prices, open till 3am.
Cons: service was a little slow. Needed to find our server to refill water a few times.

We have been going to this restaurant since it opened. One of the owners is one of the original people who helped Ruth Chris open/run her steakhouse in Louisiana. He & his partners know how to create a wonderful restaurant - great atmosphere, wonderful & different recipes, and attentive staff. We love their Lean Bodies menu, which they worked with Dr. Cliff Sheats to create. Also, when we aren't following the Lean Bodies regimen, we really enjoy the hummus appetizer, corn grits, and the various cobblers (especially black berry).

Have eaten here three times. They have wonderful appetizers. The very best hummus I have ever eaten. The hummus is loaded with kalamata olives, sweet peppers and tomatoes. The asian almond shrimp appetizer is great also. Duck empanadas are very tasty. For an entree I can easily recommend the sweet and spicy rotisserie chicken, chicken breasts with red beans and rice or the buttermilk battered shrimp. The chocolate cake for dessert is very good indeed, rich but good. They have very good martinis and fresh squeezed lemonade. Very nice view on their patio and I was told they have heaters in the cold weather. The staff was very nice and the servivce was first class. Prices are reasonable for the food. I would definitely recommend. We will return!

My wife and I arrived for an early Saturday dinner (5:45) and so were not surprised that the crowd was sparse. We were startled and disappointed to be sat at a two-top table immediately adjacent to another occupied two-top. Parallel and adjacent two-tops in a quiet restaurant are a peeve of mine, and in the cavernous space, sitting us there seemed thoughtless. Not a good start.
Our waiter had a quiet sense of humor and put us at ease, however. He suggested the Vietnamese-style beef carpaccio and we accepted. When it arrived, we were both surprised at its appearance: it looked like a mound of shredded material covered in crushed peanuts. I had expected thin strips more or less flat on the plate. We dug in, and IT WAS MARVELOUS. The ginger, lime, and chile was vivid and bright; the beef was thin and rare; the overall effect was intoxicating. It was that good.
My wife had a chicken curry that she enjoyed a great deal and I - not a curry fan - found pretty good as well. Did the coconut milk save it? I am not curry-savvy enough to say.
I suppose I was in a beef mood, so I ordered the Zander's BBQ beef. It was described as being served with toast. Odd, but I figured that the toast would be something interesting. I was wrong. The beef was tender, moist, and flavorful, but the toast was whole wheat sandwich bread. That was the plate: beef chips sprinkled with sesame seeds and sandwich bread toast. Odd.
The place did not fill up by 7:00. For the sake of the carpaccio, at least, I hope business is better for Zander's House at other times.
Pros: Vietnamese-style carpaccio
Cons: cavernous, quiet space is unsettling

Good: I just got back from eating here. This place is amazing. The food is delicious. I would recommend the Hotlink Sandwich. It's a bit spicy but not too bad. The onion rings are so tasty. Also the buffalo Burger is probably the best burger I've had. Plus it's real meat, Unlike all these fast food joints. The burgers range from $2.99-$6.99. Well worth the money. The staff is very friendly too.. Bad: So far I haven't tried anything that I haven't enjoyed eating.. Other: The restrooms and lobby are very clean also..

This is a great place for Asian food. Everything is fresh and prepared with great skill. The menu is good for both lunch and dinner. Dallas Morning News has recommended this a one of the best new restaurants for 2008. The decor is black and red, and there is a nice small bar. You will enjoy this restaurant.

All I can say is YUCK! I have been there twice, just to see if the second time was as bad as the first and it was. The wings are very dry and not worth the price they charge. Also, the staff is slow and you end up waiting forever for your nasty tasting food. By far, they have the most disgusting ranch dressing I have ever had. The french fries were hard and dry and had no flavor and the chicken tenders were really weird tasting. Not good at all. Avoid this place. There are better wing places across the street.
